SM means Shoe Mart, it started that way a small shop in downtown Manila selling shoes near University Belt, it grew bit by bit, really homegrown success.
The scale model of the mall that you were looking at isn't even 100% complete and updated i think its an old scale model of MOA because the MOA arena, the MOA SMX convention center, the MOA IKEA Store which is the largest IKEA store in the world to date, the outdoor establishments and carnival rides connected to MOA facing the Manila bay isn't included, the rooftop sunset view deck garden park and the newly constructed rooftop view deck garden park extension and the rooftop football pitch isn't included too in the scale model of the whole mall area. FYI; 3 malls that are in the Philippines is on the top 15 rankings of largest malls in the world and two more malls also from the Philippines is on the top 35 largest malls in the world.
Thank you for the information! Agree, I did not think the model was very accurate. This supermall is amazing and will take me more visits to really know the place.
Hello.. I wonder when did you made this tour of MOA? Why did you miss to show the latest added attraction and the highlight of the Christmas celebration of the mall of asia which was launched just this week …The largest 360” LED display.. it is impossible for you to have missed it if u went there only this week. It is so large bright and so hard to miss inside the mall
@ i hope that when you can find the time.. you can go back there after Christmas so there would not be too many people there. Anyway.. take good care of yourself and enjoy your stay while here in the country. Thank you for traveling here!!
@@travelingfrogman i noticed something in my comments.. they were so redundant! Ahaha.. i mean using same words in one sentence. Anyway.. if you will be spending Christmas and New Year here, i hope you will spend it with the locals because our Christmas eve is always memorable s well as our new year’s eve. Please try to witness the fireworks starting 11 oclock till miidnight because our celebration of newyear is different from the rest of the world. It’s just that you should be at the top of a building somewhere in Manila in order to have a good or 360” view of the fireworks from all over Metro Manila. Merry Christmas ! Cheers!🥂
Tong Yang Buffet isn't about 2.00 Dollars, not even a hundred Dollars per person, its just over $17/person. Eating in a restaurant here are normally way cheaper than in the US and some Western Countries! 🤓
That's right. It started out as a shoe store in Binondo ( Chinatown ) and apparently was the first to introduce airconditioning into its store back in the 60s which naturally became a hit and over time evolved into the monstrosity it is today 😂
@@travelingfrogmanEy that's cool man. Enjoy the season and brace yourself for New Year. Utter madness. From the tranquility of Christmas the city will transform into a warzone!

We dont have that king of mall here in US. Ive been here in Illinois for 35 yrs and havent been home that long now. Im from Cebu
The Mall of America in Minnesota is pretty big, but does not compare with Mall of Asia, which is much bigger.

☆☆☆SM stands for Shoe Mart Inc. ◇◇◇
Thank you 😊
That's right. It started out as a shoe store in Binondo ( Chinatown ) and apparently was the first to introduce airconditioning into its store back in the 60s which naturally became a hit and over time evolved into the monstrosity it is today 😂
@mozillaproxima4941 Wow! Thank you for the history of this mall. I was in Binondo Chinatown the other day .
@@travelingfrogmanEy that's cool man. Enjoy the season and brace yourself for New Year. Utter madness. From the tranquility of Christmas the city will transform into a warzone!
Thank you, !sir! Merry Christmas
Not bad for a so-called third-world country in the eyes of the people from the west..
The Mall of Asia is absolutely amazing!
